Hey guys, so I've been trialling the new(ish) FreeStyle Libre meter recently, and I've found it really beneficial. The ease of testing, for me at least, was pretty f-info astounding and I'm glad I had the opportunity. I was wondering if anyone else had trialled it and if anyone else would be interested in trialling it as the glucose sensors are not available in the UK on prescription at the moment and cost around £45 to buy, so the more people that trial it, the better! Literally, it pretty much took away finger prick testing and the sensor takes a glucose reading every minute so it provides a graph of trends for the whole day, and is waterproof and you can scan it through clothing, also bolus advice much like the Aviva expert is available on it. My perspective on the meter, evidently is very good, but I want to know if anyone's had any bad experiences? I've also put a picture of the sensor on the back of my arm on the thread
